Chris Hillman      Slippin' Away  written by  Chris Hillman
EPeople are talking about us
What did we do that's wrong, so wrong
ANow we've got a reputBation about a mile EloDngA  
When we fEind ourselves on that one way street
We're both headed for trouble, you see
And it's so Aeasy to find
You wBalking so close to the ElineD  A  
And it's C#mtoo G#mlate now Dwhat can you Asay
I can C#mfeel our G#mlove Dslippin' aAway
And C#msomething iG#mnside say's I'm a Dfool to Astay
EThe one that you Dlove is Aslippin' aEwaDyA  E  
ELast summer when we stayed out all night
Telling our stories until daylight
And you Atold me you loved me
BEverything would be all rEighDtA  
EYou know that sneaking away to have a good time
ESometimes you know we just got to unwind
And it's jAust not so easy
You Bwalkin' so close to the Eline
And it's C#mtoo G#mlate now Dwhat can you Asay
I can C#mfeel our G#mlove Dslippin' aAway
C#mSomething G#minside say's I'm a Dfool to Astay
The Eone that you Dlove is Aslippin' aEway
Slippin' away
And it's C#mtoo G#mlate now Dwhat can you Asay
I can C#mfeel our G#mlove Dslippin' aAway
C#mSomething G#minside say's I'm a Dfool to Astay
The Eone that you Dlove is Aslippin' aEway
The Eone that you Dlove is Aslippin' Eaway
The Eone that you Dlove is Aslippin' Eaway
The Eone that you Dlove is Aslippin' aEway
